Hola Vision TV Celeb Bringing Film Crew to Bice

Television host, producer and journalist Sonia Velasquez, whose show “La Dolce Vita a Lo Latino” appears on Spanish-language Hola Vision TV (digital channel 12.2 and Comcast channels 212 and 618), is bringing her film crew this Tuesday to the second summer cooking class at Palm Beach’s Bice.

The segment she and her team films there will air on Hola Vision TV on July 9 at 10:30 a.m.

“My show and segments are really about the good life,” says raven-haired beauty Velasquez. “Almost always, I feature something culinary.”

The theme of Bice’s July 6 cooking class/demo, led by Bice Chef Elmer Saravia and For the Love of Food’s Chef Maude Eaton, is “Tuscan Summer Classics.” It begins with a cocktail reception at 5:30 p.m. and includes a complimentary glass of wine, recipes and generous tastings of featured dishes, including tuna and cannellini bean salad and tagliolini with baby artichokes and shaved parmesan.

Attendees receive a “For the Love of Food” card. Through October, cardholders receive, among other things, 15 percent off when dining at Bice and downtown West Palm Beach’s Middle Eastern-fare restaurant Leila. The cooking class is $45 a person. To make a reservation, call 313-2210.
